Help Needed car wont turn over.
Help Needed car wont turn over.
Ok heres the story, yesterday morning i went to start my car it wouldn't turn over. But then i tried it again and it was fine. Then i parked it in a parking lot to do some errands. to make a long story short i come back and the car will not turn over. it will crank, and the ignitiion will start up, but it will not turn over.
Mods= Intake, headers, exhaust, bored TB, Battery relocation and RRM PB.
I had some tools in my car so i decided that maybe my grounding point in my car loosened. i checked it and it was fine. Then i figured i would reset the ecu so i disconnected the battery for 15 min and again tried to start, still nothing. Then i figured maybe it was gas (even though i had at least half a tank) so i picked up a gallon of gas Still nothing. Then i disconnected the pb, still nothing. Checked my spark plugs and they were good.
My question, does anyone know what could be wrong?
Which wire on the harness is for the fuel?
Could my ecu have fried?
Could my PB Fried?
Keep in Mind i have had these mods for over a year and absolutely no problems.
Someone help.

If the ignition is firing the only problem could be fuel. Injectors could be clogged with particles of dirt. Try runing a fuel system cleaner through it if you can get it to start. 27,000 is very low to have problems like that.

how did you check the plugs? when you removed them was there a gas smell in the cylinder? if not it would probably be the fuel pump. with that many miles it should not be bad but stranger things have happened.
check your crank sensor. there's a wire harness by the passenger side engine mount.
there's a skinny black ground wire on the driver side of the engine next to the cam sensor. i think that's the ground for your coil packs. make sure that and cam sensor is okay. check your pb connections too. if your rpm wire got cut, your engine might not start from that either.
check fuses and then get your codes checked. even tho a cel might not be on, you might have a pending code that could help.

ok im pretty sure its the fuel pump, or relay. Because when i checked my spark plugs they were dry, and only had a hint of fuel smell to them. granted the car has sat outside for a while, but when you turn the ignition, shouldn't there be at least some fuel going into the engine.
Anyone know where the fuel pump and relay are located???

Its your piggyback. I had a piggyback in the summer, and my car wouldn't start. It would sound like it wanted to, but just wouldnt turn over, like it needed more gaas, but wasn't getting it. I called RRM and they put the latest fuel maps on the PB and sent it back and I tried it again and it still wouldn't start. Sometimes I could get it to finally turn over and then it would be fine, but then I would turn the car off for a while and it wouldn't turn over again. I ended up just selling the PB to someone else on here and the pb worked good for him for a while then he started getting the same problems. I would contact RRM and talk to Rob and see if they've figured out what the problem is.
Hmm, I guess if you take out the piggyback and then reset your ECU (15 minutes unhooked battery), and it still doesn't turn over, than it very well may be a fuel pump problem. You could see if the stealership would look at it under warranty - maybe you can hide all yoru mods
